Tripleseat alternative

A Tripleseat alternative for restaurants focused on AI lead capture

Tripleseat is a hospitality event management platform for restaurants, hotels, and venues. ZiaPilot is narrower: capture and qualify restaurant catering or private-event inquiries from your website and WhatsApp, then help your team respond faster.

Event management starts after the inquiry is captured

  • Private dining and catering buyers may leave if no one answers quickly
  • Website forms can miss package, budget, dietary, and timing context
  • WhatsApp and chat conversations can stay outside the event workflow
  • Restaurant teams may not need hotel or venue-wide event tooling
  • Reviews and reputation signals influence whether event buyers trust you

AI capture before event management

  • Answer private dining and catering questions instantly
  • Collect date, guest count, event type, budget, and dietary needs
  • Create structured lead records for manager follow-up
  • Use menu automation to answer package and pricing questions
  • Draft review replies so future event buyers see an active, trusted brand

Built for the first reply
